#1 for Best Dessert (Intensity Mocha CheezeCake) and #1 for Best Confection (Pecan Sandie)

Chef Brooke taught a quick and easy dessert that anyone can do at home.
Here's the recipe, peeps!

Simply Wild Blueberry Cobbler
Makes 8 servings
Crust
• 3 cups pecans (presoaked for 6-8 hrs, rinsed, then dehydrated until completely dry 24-48hrs) or, if no dehydrator then use unsoaked
• 1 1/2 cups pitted medjool dates
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• Dash cayenne
Wild Blueberry Filling
• 4 cups blueberries fresh, or frozen, th...awed, and drained
• 1 cup pitted medjool dates
• ¼ cup lemon juice
• 1/8 tsp Himalayan sea salt
To make the crust: In a food processor outfitted with the “s” blade, place the pecans and dates, separating the dates and placing individually around the pecans. Process until the mixture sticks together (while processing, the mixture will come up the sides of the food processor and begin to fold inward toward the center of the food processor. Crust should hold together when pressed between your thumb and forefinger, but should not be oily.
To make the filling: Place 2 cups of the blueberries, dates, lemon juice, and sea salt in a blender and process until smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the 2 cups remaining blueberries and fold into blended portion. Press half of the crust in the bottom of a shallow 9-inch square glass baking dish. Add the filling. Crumble the remaining crust lightly on top, allowing some of the fruit filling to show through. Serve and enjoy!!!

"THE GREEN JUICE BOX" just for your juicing needs! The Benefits? Easy. Just juice each day your premeasured produce amount and enjoy pure alkaline protein, minerals and vitamins while getting fresh from the farm goodness, support our local farmer and economy...no more running to the store and trying to figure out what you need for your morning juice or having to purchase produce that has been shipped in from Timbuktu (and lost valuable nutrients and vitality along the way)

Call the Cafe or Drop In today to order your "GREEN JUICE BOX" Pick ups are Thursdays. Pre-order by SUNDAY and swing through to pick up your box on Thursdays during our open hours 11am-8pm The "Green Juice Box" is $25./week (just $3.57/day!)

Your help made the difference!!!!

With our own machine now installed (YAY!) YOU...OUR CUSTOMERS are welcome to bring in (2) 1 gallon jugs (perferably BPA FREE or GLASS) each visit to fill up @ 2./gallon during our OPEN HOURS.

"THE GREEN JUICE BOX" just for your juicing needs! The Benefits? Easy. Just juice each day your premeasured produce amount and enjoy pure alkaline protein, minerals and vitamins while getting fresh from the farm goodness, support our local farmer and economy...no more running to the store and trying to figure out what you need for your morning juice or having to purchase produce that has been shipped in from Timbuktu (and lost valuable nutrients and vitality along the way)

Call the Cafe today to order your "GREEN JUICE BOX"
First pick up starting This Thursday. Pre-order by SUNDAY and swing through to pick up your box on Thursdays during our open hours 11am-8pm (WEDNESDAY PICK UP THANKSGIVING WEEK)...

AND IN TODAYS' LOCAL NEWS:
The scientific study paid for by The Green Boheme has just released its latest results with dumbfounding yet bullet-proof data: increased consumption of cooler foods results in "hotter" humans. We have yet to have the study recognized by the American Academy of Science...but, a small cowtown in California is running with it anyway...The press is going wild:)
BE WELL and we can't wait to see your face!

Have a Delicious Day!

Welcome Chef John Komotos!

2011-09-29T06:57:00.000-07:00

The Green Boheme is thrilled to welcome Chef John Komotos (and family) to the team!

What if: You could dine comfortably and quickly at The Green Boheme for lunch or dinner? Enjoy exciting new flavor combinations and a warm welcome by our chef who wants nothing more than to get to know you and your palate?

Chef John first came to see us when he moved from Los Angeles about a year ago. A classically trained chef, he worked down south as a living foods chef and experienced for himself the amazing art and health that living foods has to offer. We had hoped then, that we would have a chance to work with him collaboratively in our kitchen someday.

Timing. John took a position at Enotria (fine dining and wine bar just down the street from The Green Boheme)...and worked his way to Executive Chef there quickly. John made a mark with his creativity and professionalism there, won an award at the California State Faire as Top Chef, and became known in Sacramento for his culinary talents.

In the meantime, The Green Boheme hired Keyonne, John's soon to be wife, after their daughter was born.

Just after we re-opened, Chef John made a decision. To follow the path in his heart, and come back to creating amazing living foods...but now, with The Green Boheme!

Our regulars at The Green Boheme are beyond pleased...service is now fast! The Grab N Go case is stocked, and menu selections are suggested to their liking.

Come on through, give a warm welcome to and meet Chef John and the beautiful and gracious Keyonne and experience the changes for yourself!

You don't have to take our word for it...our first review with Chef John and Keyonne has been published at crowtege.com

We can't wait to see you!

There is no stuck menu printed on paper, only those items to discover on the the chalkboard made fresh for you now of only the freshest ingredients available now. Imagine your surprise at the discovery of some new flavor combination, or delight at the discovery that one of your favorites is on the menu today. Imagine finding something you can grab and go for a quick snack or meal.

Now experience this at The Green Boheme. We have changed our approach and ask that you be flexible as we discover what works to rebuild.

2011-09-08T08:20:00.000-07:00

Boy, we sure have missed you...
As Chef Brooke says, "In a raw culinary world, if you want tacos on Friday...you best start on Tuesday"
That said, all our food was tossed immediately when we closed...so we are starting from scratch (literally).

We will have some pretty delighful items on the menu this week, starting today...and we will be building back up as the week progresses. The truth is, we need your business and your generosity ( from your shining smiles to donations great and small ) to get this baby back into full operation. The closure hit us hard...and yet we are grateful for it. Grateful for our community, the knowledge we gained, and a moment of reflection to see how we can serve better and share more.

And, coming to the scene, we are excited to be featuring items from The Cultered Kitchen in our grab n go section...true raw artisans and we know you'll love their offerings! (Brooke is crazy about their foods!)

Please drop in and see us..have a bite, share some news, check out the changes as they develop, and if you'd like to help with our restocking efforts just give us a nod and we'll help you with that.

Have a most delicious day! We can't wait to see you!

Update About Being Closed

2011-08-28T15:53:00.000-07:00

We are grateful that we have experienced so much support from so many of you while we have been closed. We were closed during a routine health inspection, as the inspector found 2 cockroaches.

We had a pest control service that used environmentally friendly methods, however that had apparently not been aggressive enough. Since closing, we have switched to the most aggressive chemical approach available for food service, and these pests have proven to be resistant.

We cannot have any issue with this, therefore we are closed until the problem is completely resolved. If you have additional questions, please call Brooke. Thank you for your support, and your patience.

How Can It Be So Good For You When It Tastes So Good?

2011-08-10T13:00:00.000-07:00

Raw food is the best for your health. So, how is it that it gets to taste so good too? Maybe we really were meant to eat yummy food. Take this Tomato Stack from the Green Boheme menu this week. I did. I teased myself by taking the time to photograph it before I ate it. I did not want to wait. Oh, and it tasted even better than it looks!

We are gearing up for the VEGFEST. We will have a table there and we are preparing food to stock up our deli case and refrigerator with Grab-n-Go delights for your pleasure. Feeding the Freedom to Eat...

Why would you take on the Challenge?

2011-08-06T18:09:00.000-07:00

I don't know about you, but it seems to me that it's easy to be good to other people, to support them in their effort to be healthy, to share what I have to offer. However, when it comes to doing the same for myself, it is more of a challenge. Personally, I suffer from one-more-ism: I'll just do this one more thing, and THEN I'll take the walk, luxuriate in a bath and a book, or take the time to fix myself a nourishing, healthy raw vegan meal. This willingness to put myself second is ever present.

On the other hand, I have become (through personal experience) more than convinced that the raw food lifestyle serves my body best. I really want to feel good. I really want to support my own good health. Ten years ago I went on a raw food only regimen for 30 days. It turned into 6 months of 100% raw. In that time, all of my health issues cleared up, I lost 65lbs, and I changed my whole life around. The point is, it served my body. I know it. My body knows it.

In the Green Boheme Challenge, I would be supported by Brooke and by all the other Challengers. I would learn tips and tricks and successful recipes that I never got the first time around when I did everything white knuckle and on my own. I'm really thinking about taking up the Challenge myself. Working at the restaurant, I've seen the food (heck, I helped prepare the food) that went out to the Challengers. YUM. I'm talking outrageously delicous and nutritious.

Tomorrow (Sunday, August 7, at 4:00pm) there will be a free informational meeting about the Challenge. Are you ready? I'd love to hear your story. Maybe I'll see you there. ~Dena

P.S. I have started a journal of this journey, and will be blogging it soon. Stay tuned for that.

Sometimes It Just Works

2011-07-28T12:27:00.000-07:00

Sometimes, it really just works. That's how we feel about our current menu. It works. We are taking heed of that wise old saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," so it stayed the same last week, and it will be the same again this week. Just because it is the same, doesn't mean it's Same-oh, Same-oh, though.

This Livin' Lasagna, for example. No one could ever say that it is same-oh. Every bite is delectable and thriving and healthful and delicious. Yum!

We LOVE Our Challengers!

2011-07-13T22:11:00.000-07:00

Twice a week, every week, we send home our 30 day challengers with special raw food to support them on their quest to experience the raw food lifestyle. It is a joyous journey with high points and pitfalls that our challengers choose to take together.

This lifestyle is just enough out of the "norm" that it is a rare individual indeed who successfully leaps off the cliff of the standard American diet and learns to fly on their own in the raw, without some kind of training, support and/or mutual encouragement. So, we give our challengers all of that, PLUS. Plus great food, green juices, smoothies, pro-biotics, and celebratory treats.

Last Saturday was the end of June's Challenge celebration breakfast. They feasted on a "fruit salad" of bananas and grape, avocado and creme, yes. The main dish, however was the most incredibly edible "pancakes" with a "butter," and thick berries sauce. This was topped off with an elegant orange/carrot drink in "cocktail" glasses. More than the delicious food, though was the camraderie in celebration of the accomplishment: the shared success stories, the friendly feeling of having taken up the solo challenge as a team.

And we get to witness this every month. We get to prepare their food twice every week. We get to pour our love into their food and juice for their nourishment. It is a privilege and an honor to serve in this way. All of the staff at Green Boheme serve Love as food from the heart space.

Summertime and the Raw Foodin' is Easy!

2011-07-05T19:21:00.000-07:00

by Dena

Superficially, at least, summer does seem to be the raw foodist's easiest season. There are plenty of fresh ripe fruit and veggies available. Smoothies, fresh juices, or some special recipe of sun tea satisfy the urge to sip something sweet and cold quite satisfactorily. People are open to some kind of salad at the various social gatherings or potlucks without quite so much critique of your food choices. The energy derived from your raw vegan lifestyle supports all of the activities you wish to experience.

However, it is also true that every season, even summer, presents it's own challenges for the raw foodist. One of the big things about summer is the opportunity to get out and about: vacations, hikes, picnics and simple outings abound. How do you keep your raw food raw, especially in the heat?

Vital alive food can cook and become quite dead in just a few minutes in your car. We might handle a mid-summer hike up Mt Tamalpais quite enthusiastically, however, raw nourishment at the lunch break probably requires a bit of planning and preparation to keep that energy flowing. Longer distance travel to unknown destinations may also become problematic.

We have a few ideas for keeping it cool in the summertime. Do you?

3 Creative Ways to Keep it Fresh and Easy

A personal cold-storage lunch box for short jaunts is necessary for me. Sure, one can use a "blue ice block" of some kind to keep it cold, but many times I will opt for a bag of frozen lemonade or "ice tea" instead. It works double duty in a refreshing way.
A personal refrigerator may serve well for long hot trips. They will plug into the the "cigarette lighter."
Carrying only your less delicate raw vegan foods, such as crackers or nut butters, and then buying fresh produce once you have arrived can prove a good workaround during your travels. An avocado with a seed cracker, or apple slices with almond butter are quite simple and satisfying. Or carry your favorite salad dressing. You can usually get some kind of salad just about anywhere in summer, and keep it raw with your own dressing.

What do you do to keep your raw foodin' easy in the hot days of summer? Share your solution. We'll post it on here, and give you an icey-cold Yerba Limeade or a Iced Hibiscus tea to help you keep cool.

Whole Lot o' Movin' and Shakin' Goin' On

2011-06-30T09:34:00.000-07:00

It's pretty obvious that all of the food served here at the Green Boheme is infused with a big dose of LOVE as well as all the nutritional nourishment of raw organic food, and yet there is another thrilling taste just below that which has not been outwardly acknowledged. That is the JOY factor.

We are closed Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Monday is just for a real day off for everyone, and Tuesday and Wednesdays are prep days. It takes 2-3 days to thoroughly prep some of the meal choices on our menu, because unlike "regular" restaurants we prepare everything from scratch. That spells a lot of people hours cutting, chopping, blending, preparing for dehydration, combining and concocting!

We have a very happy crew here at the Green Boheme. The camraderie is familial and joy just flies around. There is always music going, and on prep days it tends to be a bit louder and livelier. The feet just can't hold still, and it seems we all love to dance.

So, after your next bite of Green Boheme deliciousness, just let it sit a moment longer on the palette. Savor teh LOVE and the JOY!

We're Looking Forward to Seeing You

Have you tasted the Strawberries and Cream Smoothy or the Hibiscus tea, on a hot summer day? Just sayin'...

We had one winner of a smoothie for a unique idea of what to do with Lemon peels (after juicing). Janet Thew's lemon peel idea: I juice a bunch of lemons, and put the juice and minced peel in ice cube trays to use all year.

Coupon Treat of the Week!

How about $2. off our Mac 'n Cheese? This week only, just say, "MAC Please!" How's that? Nothing to print, no stress.

The sweet taste of Summer!

2011-06-23T12:24:00.000-07:00

Talk about sweet! We have included 3 different ice cremes in this weeks menu: Ginger, Vanilla and Mango! Yum. And then there is Yum, Yum: Peach Cobbler topped with Ginger Ice Creme! Those attending our weekly class yesterday evening helped put this jubilant taste together. All of the taste buds light up!

We are also introducing our new tostada into the menu this week. It features a Crisp corn tortilla topped with chipotle cheese, shredded lettuce, mock taco meat, avocado-tomato salsa and sour crème. It's sure to be a new hit along with the new entree started last week - Sushi with mock white rice which consists of Nori wraps with seed pate, carrots, sprouts avocado and mango served with our white jicama “rice” and cucumber salad.

Finally, the newest sweetness in the never-ending pursuit of the ultimate chocolate decadence is this weeks hard chocolate candy called "Chocolate Decadence" - which has dark chocolate with mock caramel sauce, Brazil nut butter and pecans. OK, my mouth is talking to me.

Kangen - First Gallon Free!

2011-06-17T11:57:00.000-07:00

We have been privileged to serve Kangen water to everyone that dines at the Green Boheme. The health benefits of this special water are many. If you have never tried Kangen water, come in with your own glass jug, and receive your first gallon free, just to try it.

Win/Win Fundraiser
Our Kangen water machine has been on generous loan. We are looking to get our own machine, and are initiating a fundraiser to do so. We will all benefit. With that in mind, help us get the new machine. Prepay for 50 gallons or more as an investment in our community resources. We are working on raising $1100 down right now.

With our own commercial grade machine we will be able to:

Continue to offer Kangen water to our customers
Continue our non-chemical sanitization of the facility
Continue to wash our produce, nuts and seeds in pure water without floride, chlorine and any other undesirable impurities in the tap water.

What is Kangen Water?

2011-06-02T10:41:00.000-07:00

Ionized, restructured water supplies the body with extra free electrons that can be used to help neutralize free radicals in your body. Kangen water has an alkaline pH along with a strong NEGATIVE "ORP" (Oxidation Reduction Potential) - making it a very potent antioxidant. Soft drinks, sports drinks and even most bottled waters have acidic pH and positive ORP - that means they're not antioxidants, they are actually oxidizing your body.

See the difference for your body at our demonstration this Sunday, 2pm in the cafe!

Psst! Brooke's Birthday Surprise

Brooke is always filling her food with lots of love for us. We decided to turn the tables for her 40th birthday (July 23), so we're hosting a (surprise) potluck in her honor. The idea is that Brooke won't have to lift a finger and we'll love her up with our raw creations! Are you in? Sonada Malay will be playing music from their new album "Love and Politics." More details to follow, as the time draws nearer.

Free Smoothie for Lemon Peels?

When you are juicing, or making your favorite lemon bars recipe, there arises always the question about what to do with all the lemon peels. They say not to put them in the compost. It seems like such a waste to just toss them. What are your ideas? If you send in an original (and useful) idea for us to publish, we'll give you a free smoothie! A few that occurred to us:

Zest them and freeze for topping your lemon bars or other dishes
Cut them up into little pieces (shred them in the food processor) and hang in a net bag to dry for use in teas, bath bags, in potpourri's etc.
Use them to clean surfaces
Grind one up in the garbage disposal if your sink has bad breath
Look it up on the internet and discover 22 uses for lemon peels.

Change Your Life with Kangen Water!

2011-02-10T22:38:00.000-08:00

Water Truth!
Fridays at 7pm, starting Feb. 11th!
Come learn about Kangen Water, the water we use and share here, at The Green Boheme!

In Japanese, Kangen means "Return to Origin," and that is the intent of this miraculous water. Kangen Water is treated tap water and has undergone both filtration and ionization. During the ionization process several important things happen to alter the structure of the water, making it more useful to the body.

- water soluble acids are replaced with calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and trace minerals to create great tasting, alkaline water.

- the electron millivolt (mV) charge of the water is lowered, creating a negative oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) resulting in true antioxidant water

- large water clusters are broken into "micro-clusters" increasing absorption and hydration

Drinking Kangen Water aids the body in the displacement of acids throughout the body's normal channels of elimination (kidneys, bowel, lymph and skin) and is efficient in hydrating the body's cells.

Nature has produced "miracle waters" in several places around the world. Native people in these areas enjoy long and healthy lives. The secret to these waters are that they are clean, alkaline, antioxidant and
micro-clustered. Kangen Water delivers these same qualities to your home.

Come to The Green Boheme tonight to learn more about this amazing water through our free demonstration! Try some yourself and know you can come in to purchase it at $2/gallon whenever you'd like (you must bring your own jars 'til we have some for sale tho)! The more you can drink this water the better!

We will start at 7pm sharp, so plan to come a few minutes early to secure your seat and not miss a thing. We'll see you then! =)

Breakfast is Here!
Come to our food preparation class this Saturday, February 12th, to learn how to make delicious crepes without the chicken or the cow.

Fill with some beautiful fresh fruit and yummy coconut yogurt and you could never go wrong!

Learn all the secrets tomorrow at 9am! Class is $10 and bring some paper to take notes!

Just for your knowledge ~ the upcoming classes are as follows :
February 19th - Pesto Cheese Torte
February 26th - Crackers

and, on a different note, March 16th will be the beginning of our next 30 Day Raw Challenge!
If you've been considering making changes in your life, particularly when it comes to health and wellness, it might be time to think about giving a raw, vegan, living foods lifestyle a try. We are here to offer encouragement, support, and all the food you could possible need if you want it! Check out our website for more details!

The Green Boheme Review by Malcolm Maclachlan, reporter for Capital Weekly

June 10, 2010- "Ordering at The Green Boheme is like entering an alternate universe. We split the tuna sandwich ($7.95) and the burger ($8.75). But neither contained meat, and neither was cooked.

But both still approximated their namesakes. The tuna was particularly good - whatever was in there really tasted like tuna. The bread was a kind of pressed nutty thing, almost like a kind of snack chip but softer. The burger was a sort of pressed vegetable protein thing with homemade ketchup and excellent Dijon mustard on it. It tasted far more like an actual burger than any cooked veggie burger I have ever had. And it came with these really tasty little onion ring things that were made with onion, but somehow without cooking.

I should explain, Green Boheme serves raw food. The raw food movement is a reaction to the over-processed, artificial nature of modern “food.” Part of the idea is that the mere act of refraining from cooking food pushes you in several healthier directions. For one thing, it forces you to eat things that are actually food in their most basic forms; you know, the whole “eat food, not too much, mostly plants” mantra. Veggies, grains and nuts are mainstays in this sort of diet. Many things - meat, pasta, bread and so forth - can be approximated with various combinations of ingredients cleverly mixed.

The health benefits are many, including preserving many of the nutrients and fiber than can be lost in cooking and processing. Raw foods are prepared the day of, or shortly before, meaning no nasty chemical preservatives.

And if you’re looking for a way to feel full but still lose weight, raw food cannot be beat. The serving sizes here may look smaller than many are used to, but I promise, you will leave full. Yes, I weigh 160 pounds soaking wet, but I’m known for my huge appetite and fast metabolism. At the end of this meal, I was actually uttering the phrase “No, you go ahead, I’m stuffed.”

The kale side salad was as advertised - lots and lots of kale in a slightly tangy vinegar dressing. I love kale, but my one complaint here was all the little raisins in it. I’m not big on raisins, and pretty much hate them in anything besides trail mix. But I’m also aware that, similar to my feeling that in a kinder universe mayonnaise would simply not exist, I’m not in the mainstream on this one. Otherwise, the salad was really good.

We finished out with an awesome chocolate smoothie ($6.95). They offer a constantly-changing variety of smoothies, including one that had lots of cucumber in it - surprisingly refreshing (we got to taste). We also left with a pint of their amazing “ice cream” ($7.95). I put “ice cream” in quotes because it’s made with fruit, not dairy, as a base. But it is dense, rich and creamy, almost a kind of mouse. We got the mocha, but they also have mint chip and a honey vanilla flavor that they have a hard time keeping in stock.

Green Boheme is not in the most happening neighborhood, residing on Del Paso Boulevard north of downtown. It’s a wide street with great older architecture, like a small town downtown. It’s an area that has never really taken off as an arts and eating destination.

But there are a lot of state offices not that far away. If you need to leave your office park and get in a car to get food, Green Boheme is very much worth the trip. There is lots of prepackaged food available, including all the major courses each day, so there will be essentially no wait to eat in or take out."

Hello Friends, Family, Living Food Lovers or those of you "Raw Curious" :)

2010-05-14T07:00:00.000-07:00

Thank you for joining us! We've got some wonderful enhancements on the way. Today's big announcement?...

The Green Boheme is back!

The cafe has undergone a name change. You will see this change bring about some differences in your cafe experience. We thought it best to start fresh. You will see in Green Boheme style a few changes that will delight you:

-The cafe decor & atmosphere evolving.

-Communication changes. If you are receiving this email, rest assured you are on a separate email list than any other business that was previously associated with The Art Of Food. If you would like to continue receiving a weekly email from us regarding news & menu for The Green Boheme, do nothing. If you'd like to discontinue receiving any other emails not directly related to The Green Boheme, that's up to you! It will not opt you out of the emails from the cafe.

-Our Website (currently blogspot) will be updated weekly to reflect this newsletter: www.thegreenboheme.com

-If you are one of our voucher owners, or were a Buyers Club member from The Art Of Food, we'd like you to know that agreements will be honored at The Green Boheme! This change will be seamless for you, and you can rest assured that service will be improving.

-The menu is simpler, quicker, and better! Hours of operation are Monday Thru Saturday 11-2pm for Lunch, 11-5pm for our delicious and fresh Grab N Go Items.

-The Vision (as you see it below) is the same. Just to be clear, Brooke Preston is the sole owner of The Green Boheme. We have a wonderful staff here at the cafe ready to serve you the most delicious food on the planet...come visit us! This week, we will be doing more sample tasting than ever so you can experience the new menu. Our request? YOUR INVOLVEMENT! We want your feedback and ideas... lets face it...we do what we do for YOU, right? Come in and help us get to the next level. Get in here and put your two (or more) cents in!

The Green Boheme Vision-The First Draft!

We'd like to share it with you, Our Friends & Family!

The Green Boheme is more than a sweet little cafe on Del Paso Boulevard. This cafe is a ministry of hope & love to all that join us, whether to partake of amazingly tasty healing foods as a customer, or to work and play as a part of the team that serves our community. We'd like to take this model & duplicate it in every neighborhood we can across the country!

What We're About!

-Healing foods that are the most delicious foods on the planet!

-A culture of honor.

-Sharing freely all that we learn to help anyone on their healing journey.

-Supporting local people, farms, businesses with "like" visions.

-A comfortable, convenient space to grab a fast bite (service guarantee from front door to out the door in 40minutes OR super quick grab n go selection of prepared foods), or a space which will allow you to peacefully languish over your meal and chat with friends, work on your computer, seek prayer.

-Staff is clear about their purpose, and leadership is consistently supporting that/or those purposes.

-Laughter.

-Teaching the community through classes in the cafe and Internet videos.

Healing Community

We have garden space all over the city that we could be cultivating, including our own garden in the back of the cafe. We would like to utilize that space by having a garden coordinator help people get into the gardens and work it produce food. Food would go into the cafe, and surplus into a small neighborhood grocery offering local grown organics. We would like to have the garden coordinators invite those that are the "forgotten" in our communities...those coming away from rough back rounds and need job skills (half-way houses, criminal back rounds, becoming independent from a life of foster care, disabled). These precious people would learn valuable work ethics and skills, be given whole organic foods, and an opportunity for a paid position in the grocery or cafe dependent on their skills and growth. In the midst of this, they are introduced to a community of people that deeply care about their welfare, and have an opportunity to heal on deep levels personally as their identity as a precious child of God is restored and lifted, while their bodies take in true nutrition in the form of living organic whole foods.

Education

Ongoing classes at the cafe teach the community how to create this beautiful food for themselves and offer the "nuts and bolts" of a lifestyle that is focused on healing foods versus the standard American diet.

Website that offers webinars, testimonials, tools that assist people in their own journey with healing foods.

Speaking Engagement

Going to schools to share what we know, lobbying for children to have organic whole foods in their lunches, hospitals, fairs, everywhere we can get to share the great news about what organic whole foods can do to heal the body and the community.

Commerce

Neighborhood Cafe's: everywhere we can put them.

Distribution center: a large kitchen facility to accommodate prepping & storage for the "satellite cafe locations", as well as produce items like our crackers, kale chips, bars, chocolate, ice cream, seasoned nuts & seeds, etc to be sold through major grocery stores (Whole Foods, local Health Food

Stores, Raleys and the like, deli's, vending machines throughout California for now, ultimately internationally.

Website: Learning space, tools available for transitioning to a raw vegan lifestyle easily, food prep, testimonials, real life challenges and solutions, how to videos and a weekly "show"...AND the "Walmart" for Raw Vegan foods...you can get anything through us for less without a big hoopla.

Neighborhood Organic Groceries: Selling cultivated produce, grab-n-go items, & superfoods.
